DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company based in Hangzhou, specializes in developing advanced large language models. Established recently by Liang Wenfeng, the company has made waves in the AI industry for its DeepSeek-R1 model. Notably, DeepSeek claims to produce AI rivaling leading models like GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost and resource requirements. This breakthrough is particularly noteworthy given the US sanctions on China for Nvidia processors, demonstrating DeepSeek's innovative approach in the competitive AI landscape.
